Frommer's "This well-placed hotel offers great value within walking distance of Georgetown and Dupont Circle." Full review
i
Request a room on the eighth or ninth floor for views of Georgetown and beyond; request an "executive corner suite" for a slightly larger unit.
Lonely Planet "It may leave little to the imagination, but this outpost of the chain does a fine job with those basics, plus the location between Georgetown and Dupont Circle is handy."
DK Eyewitness "Well-furnished rooms with good work areas and a separate living room for meetings or relaxing."
Star Service "Opened in 1987 on the eastern edge of Georgetown, this familiar midrange franchise ticks with the efficiency of a well-wound metronome." Full review
Fodor's "All accommodations at this pleasant and convenient hotel within walking distance of Georgetown and Dupont Circle have a living room and bedroom." Full review

Concierge "This cavernous Beaux Arts masterpiece has been the centerpiece of official Washington since it opened in 1850."
Travel + Leisure "Today's Willard, a bit like the political world it esteems, is grand in public, though a little bland in private." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This is certainly among the most historic of hotels. Epochal events, including the birth of the League of Nations, were discussed here by principal figures."
Star Service "The regularly maintained accommodations all feature a traditional decor of high ceilings, dark-stained period furniture, classic color schemes and traditional window treatments." Full review
BlackBook "Washington's Waldorf Astoria, even designed by the same guy. A whole lotta shit has gone down in these marble halls which are literally made of marble."
Zagat4.0
""Nothing compares to the service at the Willard" swoon supporters of the "impeccable" staff at this "grand old hotel" oozing "history and elegance"."
Frommer's "This is one of D.C.'s finest hotels, and certainly its most historic, having served as temporary home to two presidents... and as the setting for many historic events." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
